I arrived at the hotel and found the rooms initially dirty, but they were quickly cleaned up to a nice and clean condition. The location is convenient being near the center and the university, although the lack of reserved accommodation was a downside. The service was friendly and professional, although I felt a bit watched until my ride arrived. The dining experience fell short as there was no breakfast, just coffee and old donuts. Overall, a good stay with some minor hiccups.

The hotel was tucked away in a perfect spot, but unfortunately, the room had an awful stench that lingered, and the AC unit didn't work. On the plus side, the location was great and the facilities were decent.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and bad. The room had an awful stench that lingered, it was scorching hot on arrival, and the AC was not working well. The bathroom was dirty and came with used towels. However, the room itself was large, comfortable, and cozy, albeit still smelling of smoke.
